A Harry Potter exhibition is coming to the British Library – and we want tickets now!

Are you or your kids still absolutely obsessed with all things Harry Potter? Then a new exhibition coming to the British Library this autumn needs to be on your radar – particularly because tickets have just gone on sale and are bound to sell out fast!

Dubbed 'Harry Potter, A History of Magic', the event will launch in October to celebrate the 20th – no, we can't believe it's been that long either – anniversary of the publication of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first instalment in J.K. Rowling's seven-book series.

On the website, the British Library have teased us with the intriguing words, 'Have you ever wanted to delve into Divination, ponder the peculiarities of Potions and discover enchanting creatures? Now you can.'

As well as exploring rare books, manuscripts and magical objects from the British Library's collection that capture the 'traditions of folklore and magic', Potter geeks can explore J.K. Rowling's original drafts and accompanying drawings by illustrator Jim Kay, both on display for the first time.

Running from 20 October 2017 to 28 February 2018, this might just be the perfect educational but fun day trip to try with the kids, so get booking!
